The ruling suggests that any private industry production and operations should abide by law and that Chinese and foreign companies are equal before the law. They have a responsibility to protect and restore the environment and to pay compensation for proved loss to others.

The court stated that the arbitrator mentioned in the clause should be Beijing’s China International Economic Trade Arbitration Centre as indicated by its abbreviation, CIETAC, but the Chinese name of the agency in the clause is not accurate, so the arbitration clause in this case is not in violation of the Arbitration Law of China, so Yisheng’s request is denied.
